Colin Jackson coaches Tim Benjamin and Rhys Williams for Olympics
Colin Jackson is returning to the track to help two of Great Britain's leading athletes in their hopes for medals at the 2008 Olympics and he will coach Tim Benjamin and Rhys Williams, who are returning home to Wales after being based in England.
Tim Benjamin and Rhys Williams both won silver for Britain in the 4x400m relay at August's European Championships in Gothenburg.
"In Tim and Rhys I've found athletes who really want to make something of themselves," said Colin Jackson.
"They also have the ability to do so. We all know they can win medals, but they need to be more consistent in their top level performances.
"I will work with the two of them initially up to Beijing (host city for the 2008 Olympic Games) and then see how things have been going.
"If we are successful, then hopefully we can continue on to the London Olympics in 2012," Colin Jackson added.
